FURIOUS

A cross section of the people of the country and Uttarakhand in particular are badly annoyed and disenchanted over the arbitrary registration of murder charges against the major and another trooper of 10 Garhwal Rifles over the firing on the stone pelter crowd in self defence in Shopia, Kashmir by the Mehbooba Mufti led government of Jammu and Kashmir in a first ever attempt by any state police in the history of Indian Army who are tirelessly safe guarding our sensitive borders round the clock and countering the Pak sponsered terrorists hell bent upon vitiating the peaceful atmosphere of the border state and killing our Armymen, the local police and the innocents incessantly.

It’s a well known fact that several hundreds of our army Jawans, para military personels and innocent Kashmiris have fallen to the bullets of these Pak sponsored terrorists during the last several years while bravely and courageously fighting these anti national elements hell bent upon vitiating the traquil and peaceful communal fabric of J&K and the country. However, our valiant Armymen have killed hundreds of these terrorists in Kashmir and destroyed over 150 terror launch pads functioning in Pakistan in its most succesful terror strike.

These Pak sponsored terrorists have been instigating the stone pelters and local youths to act against India and the Army in the name of Jihad through Hawala financial networks and suppying them arms and ammunitions. The Army, Garhwal Rifles and other commands have been relentlessly fighting these terrorists, stone pelters and fidayeens to protect the local Kashmiris in an attempt to rid this strife torn state of these anti national elements.

While in the line of duty the Major and Jawans of 10 Garhwal Rifles were petrolling the strife torn Shophia area in Kashmir valley and were surrounded by a heavy mob of stone pelters and one of the stones’ hit the trooper, causing grievous injury. Seeing the situation going out of control and having been surrounded by the heavy crowd of stone pelters the Garhwal Rifle troopers were compelled to fire in air and self defence purely unintentionally leading to two casualties.

Sources say that had the jawans not fired in self defence their life would have been in total danger having been surrounded very closely by the stone pelting crowd. The Army spokesman said that it was purely the reflex action in self defence with no deliberate intention to harm anybody. But the Mufti Mohammed government and its police arbitrarily registered cases under murderous sections against two personels of 10 Garhwal Rifles, a first ever cowardice attempt against Armymen in India’s history. Though everyone has the sympathy for those killed in this action of self defence but the right thinking people of the country and those who know, how our patrotic Armymen by risking their lives every second in strife torn J&K and the tense borders are 24×7 gaurding our nation and safeguarding countrymen, are badly annoyed, disenchanted and furious over the arbitrary and politically motivated action of the PDP – BJP government led by Mehbooba Mufti.

The Bhartiya Janata Party has also expressed its serious concern and reservation on this issue and is trying to revoke the decision. There is overall resentment and annoyance all over the country and in Uttarakhand over this most uncalled for act against the Armymen of 10 Garhwal Rifles who are protecting our borders and fighting dreaded terrorists day and night risking their lives for our nation’s safety, security and unity.

The Indian Army is standing solidly with the Garhwal Rifles in this hour of crisis and has taken a stand that the firing was entirely in self defence and the situation warranted so. It may be recalled that the Indian Army stood solidly behind Major Lithul Gogoi also last year who tied one of the local Kashmiri youth, stone pelter over his Jeep’s bonnet and petrolled the area which was full of stone pelters. There was tremendous hue and cry all over India, particularly in Kashmir but the Army patted the Major and felicitated him with honours. The case of 10 Garhwal Rifles is now under the charge of the Deputy collector and its being said that an indepth impartial enquiry would be conducted in the matter expeditiously and all the cocerned parties would be heard before arriving at the final verdict.
According to eminent literateur, poet and linguist of Uttarakhand Dr. Satish Kaleshwari: It is shameful act. The Garhwal Rifles is the glory and honour of Indian Army. Discouraging Major Aditya with his ten brave soldiers is insult of the Indian Army. Jai Badri Vishal.
SUNIL NEGI

The foreign department of the United States of America has a taken a very serious view of the arbitrary release of the the US designated international dreaded terrorist and Lashkare Tayyeba chief Hafeez Sayeed and issued directives to the Pakistan authorities to re arrest and try him for killings hundreds of innocents in India, US and elsewhere, globally in the name of Jehad. It may be recalled that the United States of America has designated Hafiz Sayeed as an international terrorist and have been repeatedly accusing Pakistan of patronising him and several other hard core terrorists by way of openly aiding and abetting them financially and otherwise to run terror sanctuaries in various parts of Pakistan creating havoc globally, killing innocents by sneaking terrorists in various countries of the world, especially the J& K.

The US foreign department’s spokes person said that Hafiz Sayeed is a hard core terrorist involved in the killings of hundreds of innocents and needs to be tried under the severest sections of the law thus putting him behind the bar. It has taken a very serious view of his unconditional release and asked Pakistan authorities to re arrest him forthwith. Meanwhile after his arrest by the Supreme court of Pakistan Hafeez Sayeed was given a rousing reception by the volunteers andhard core activists of the Jamaat Ul Dava including the police officials of Pakistan showing on vedio released by India tv tonight.

While addressing the terrorists and the hard core activists of Laskare Tayyeba at the reception given to him at the Jamait Ul Dawa head quarters in Pakistan Hafeez Sayeed vowed to free Kashmir from the Indian dominion and vowed publicly to leave no stone unturned to continue his Jihad against India by training myriad number of Pakistan youths to wage a war against India to achieve his long termed objective to free Kashmir from the Indian dominion.

It may be recalled that chief of the Lashkare Tayyeba and Jamait Ul Dawa was the chief master mind behind the Mumbai killings in which more than 166 innocent people died including 6 Americans and several Israel citizens. By arbitrarily releasing a hard core terrorist Hafiz Sayeed on whose head there is an unambiguous charge of killings hundreds of innocents in Kashmir and Mumbai it is now absolutely clear that Pakistan is openly supporting, aiding and abetting terrorists and terror sanctuaries and has no respect for the rule of law and international obligations of maitaining peace and tranquility in the Asian subcontinent.

The United States of America’s serious view on Hafiz Sayeed’s release and demand to rearrest him is bound to further deteriorate the already deteriorating relations between US and Pakistan. It the political analysts are to be believed India has played a significant role in pressurising America in asking Pakistan authorities to take the serious view of Hafiz Sayeed’s arbitrary release and instruct its rulers to rearrest him.on the stringent charges of killings and aiding and abetting of terror activities and sanctuaries in Pakistan.
